LA Colors Abstract Artist Palette

“Oh wow”. That was the first thing I said when I swatched this palette.  This palette is absolutely cheap at only Php650 (at the Hyphen Store). It has 50 colors so that’s 13 pesos for each color. I was absolutely shocked when I touched one of the eyeshadows. It had a very creamy texture. When I swatched it on the back of my hand, it was love at first sight. The colors were so vibrant, so visible, even the white one. Even the other sellers in our bazaar gushed how pretty the colors were. Just one swipe and the color payoff was great. Pigmentation, obviously, is great.   low light swatch   I used this today when MB and I went out. We spent the whole morning driving and in the afternoon we went to MOA to attend to some business. When I got home, my pink eyeshadow was still very pink! This does not happen with my ELF palette. I used this with Money from my UD <3 NYC palette and it held up pretty good. As a matter of fact, Money was drowned by the black Bobbi Brown e...

I Dream of Greenie

Here’s another Wet n Wild palette! And it happens to be one of my favorites (if not my favorite): I love green and I wear it when I’m in a happy mood. Here’s a swatch: I wore this when we went to Ocean Park. This is the EOTD after 5 hours: This is my FOTD. I only re-touched my powder, blush and lipstick. I don’t bring my eyeshadow palettes. After a day of heat and sweat, it still looked vibrant: So I guess it’s safe to say that this is a very good buy right? For only Php299, I get a long-lasting eyeshadow palette. More Wet n Wild Palettes to come!

Lust Smokey Eye

I used the Wet n Wild Lust palette that’s why the title has the word “lust” in it. = ) I used all the shades on the left side plus a bit of shimmer on the bottom shadow on the right to top the look. This isn’t a “clean” smokey eye. I was just testing out this palette. Plus I wasn’t really in the mood to apply makeup as I think I did this at 11 pm. I was very impressed with the Wet n Wild palette. For 500 pesos, I get 6 very fine, very pigmented shades that can give me day or night looks. When I swatched it the first time at the SM counter, I was already impressed but I wasn’t expecting it to perform this good when I actually apply it on my lids. The colors are easy to build  and they blend well with each other. Fallout was minimal. And for something this affordable, I was surprised that it didn’t make my eyes itch. But then again, I only had this on for a few minutes. I’ll find out soon enough. Another thing that I like about this palette are the matte shadows. I’m tryin...
